Both.
Basically, Mutt uses a default operator, if you type in a text string
which isn't a valid pattern matching expression. For send-hooks it's
$default_hook, for searching messages with / in the index it's
$simple_search.
So doing
send-hook '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' ...
is equal to
send-hook "~f [EMAIL PROTECTED] !~P | (~P ~C [EMAIL PROTECTED])" ...
if you haven't touched the default value of the $default_hook setting.
See the manual's entry on the $default_hook setting for more info (well,
not much more, but at least for the official documentation).
